Project overview
The general area between Etude Drive and Justine Drive in Malton is comprised of mostly residential properties and is subject to urban flooding during storm events, including the rainstorm that occurred on July 8, 2013.
The goal of this study is to mitigate urban flooding risks to people, property and infrastructure and will involve identifying and evaluating various alternative solutions to help mitigate flooding including a preferred solution that will be presented at a Public Information Centre (PIC).
Project team environmental specialists will be walking the study area and making notes to document existing conditions to support the evaluation of alternative solutions.
Notice of project impacts
In 2021, a notice was delivered to affected property owners to provide an overview of the project and explain its benefits for potential flood reduction. The notice also describes the impacts and planned approach toward existing encroachments.
We would like to thank everyone who provided comments to the project team.
Online Public Information Centre
A Public Information Centre (PIC) for the Malton Flood Mitigation Environmental Assessment Study was made available in June 2023. Through the Municipal Class Environmental Assessment process, the project team developed and evaluated alternative solutions.
A preliminary recommended solution was identified for public review and presented through the PIC. The presentation is available in the project documents.
Project File Report
